Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The proposal would conflict with the development plan by causing significant harm to character and appearance and creating unacceptable parking and highway safety impacts, with material considerations insufficient to outweigh this conflict.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 8 of the North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy (2016)
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
